Construction Matters

Section 3

This section will usually include the following:

Introduction to what is comprised within the Facilities

Architectural performance specification

Civil/Structural performance specification

Mechanical and Electrical performance specification

Thermal and energy efficiency requirements

Area Schedule

Drawings

The Authority should also ensure that it includes the wording provided by WRAP to the SFT, details of which can be found at [http://www.scottishfuturestrust.org.uk]

Any design requirements in relation to thermal and energy efficiency (such as those formerly in Clause 12 (Design Responsibility) of the DBFM template project agreement) should be included here. Authorities should also seek advice from technical advisors on design review, construction monitoring and tests on completion to give a high degree of assurance that the design requirements have been achieved before the services commence. These are all matters that Authorities also require to address for capital funded assets and a generally similar approach should be adopted.
